Although Mike is very reasonably priced with an expedient turnaround, I recommend you save both time and money by simply putting your AHE's barrels in a vise and whack them off about 3.5" with a hacksaw. This should result in the chokes coming in just about perfect for your needs, the gun might end up being a little more dynamic and a little lighter to boot.

   I wouldn't open the chokes on that gun for anything. Shoot spreaders or just make smoke which is better yet.
